Question about lower wattage Metal Halide (PICS)
I was able to convince the matenance guy in my apartment complex to let me get a used metal halide ballast and a brand new 70 watt 150M bulb, I was able to rewire the ballast with a vacume cleaner cord i have no experiance with electricity and i was still able to do it, i know this is a very low wattage but my queation is, when coupled with my 4 foot daylight floros how much of a boost will this give my plants, will the 70 watts of metal halide give the plants a little better boost than just with the floros?
Also, if i were to try to flower 1 plant with the 70 watt metal halide, how good of a yeald would i get? Im planning on getting a 600 Watt HPS in the near future once work picks back up agin.
Thank you for taking the time to read my post and leave your educated comments. :thumbsup:
Sorry the pics are so small, Also i think its relevent to add that the 4 plants are being Low Stress Trained, they would be about a foot tall ot more if not tided down.BONG0 Reviewed by BONG0 on .
